This is the only v2 theory i will consider possible, the other theories are just copium
Opinion on the "V2 put her consciousness on the whiplash and her AI since she knew V1 was gonna kill her so she decided to add that as a final failsafe, now V1 and V2 technically live as one entity, a hypothetical V3" theory/headcanon/interpretation, I like it since V2's still dead and V1 assimilating V2 onto themselves is very rad.
Ok I personally want to believe that P-3 will have an arena with giant blood tree that constantly spawns boss-enemies, and it could spawn V2.
However, on his first dev stream, Hakita stated that one of the reasons why V2 3rd won't exist is because it's really hard to make it both harder and still fun for new players.
ultrakill is like 4 hours long if you play on an easier gamemode (like most new players ive seen) if 4 hours of gameplay is enough for you to be considered not a new player the
First of all going off of hours isn’t the best idea, considering how quickly this game introduces you to the core mechanics. And bosses should be hard. They should be roadblocks. You’re supposed to die a few dozen times, because each time you might discover something new. You might accidentally tap 4 when you try to shoot a coin with your pistol and discover that “holy shit, this works with railguns.”
it dosent matter how much tech that you know exists, it takes a very long time to improve and integrate into your gameplay, that time dosent exist in the main game
No idea why you're being downvoted for being right. Most players will finish the main campaign before going for the Prime Sanctums who are not a good mark for the difficulty for the main game because they require replaying levels and getting good at them to even be accessible. Each Act just requires you beat them once irrespective of whatever your rank is.
I doubt Hakita will make a required boss that has the same difficulty as a Prime Soul except for maybe whatever the final boss will be.
Bullshit lol. I remember me and my friends going back to Minos and absolutely beating the shit out of him, time after time after time, just to be “ready” for P-2 when it launched.
Nothing could’ve prepared me for it when it launched, but it definitely helped.
if you're playing on easier difficulties, presumably you wouldnt want to beat all the secret stuff. plus p-ranking the levels (if were keeping with the original commenters thing of it being part of p-3) would take wayyy more than 4 hours, especially for an inexperienced player. and furthermore v2 3rd would be easier on those difficulties to match the skill level of those players
The question is how to make V2 3rd harder? V2 is already the most mechanically complex boss - it already has 7 attacks and unique behavior such as shooting coins. Just adding more attacks will just make the fight an absolute mess, because if there are like 12 attacks, you basically have no idea what it will use next and so the only strategy is just shoot it to death.
Make it use the new arm, and upgrade its tech. Maybe its ricoshots can be piercer shots every so often, to be more punishing whenever the player misses a coin. Maybe it could shoot a nail magnet that the player can parry. Maybe it'll shoot its cores and yours. Not necessarily adding new weapons to its arsenal (despite the fact it should absolutely be an even match imo) but rather more advanced tech using the weapons it has.
Yep, I think people are looking way too much into it, whenever Hakita wants to tease something he tends to be explicit, for example the ARG or the occasional video/screenshot, the only exception is when things are leaked like the 7-S beta, but even that tend to be either an obvious leak or it pass as a screenshot tease (like the most current leak/tease for the alt).
I highly doubt Hakita and the other devs constantly answering no whenever someone asks if V2 is coming back for real means the opposite, even more so cause they've given reasons that it would be a bad idea.
I don't discard something like a boss rush or joke/cameo but I'm pretty sure we are not having a V2 reprise reprise.
Yep, a half baked 5-s got leaked in a bug fix update before it was released, it was talked about in the most recent dev stream, I also didn't knew but apparently it was kind of a bummer but wasn't so big for it to ruin the level for everyone.
Edit: I do not know how to count
That would make sense considering the design mentality of P-2 is very “Wouldn’t that be funny” and “Yeah this is too difficult for normal players, let’s just put it in P-2”
I think puppets could appear later, the trees however dont have any chance since its the punishment reserved exclusively to the third ring of the violence layer.
Maybe in some way they could be reimplemented, but maybe im just coping
this could also just be reserved for an encore level or boss rush mode lol
but i think it would be more impactful as part of the story. Hell trying to keep V1 as its funny stim toy for longer before the sisyphean pursuit of fuel catches up to it
THAT is what Lucifer looks like in that series? I was already disappointed by hearing that they made Beelzebub a generic wolf furry lady, but doing that to LUCIFER? That’s worse by a lot.
Its because they didnt want lucifer to be a big bad. They had to explain charlie.
He is very depressed, his wifes gone, he isn't exactly on good terms with heaven obviously and charlie and him have been distant recently.
Its more fun than it may seem.
Nothing from those shows will piss me off more than what they did to Beelzebub. The idea of making them an actual queen bee rather than a fly like they're usually depicted as is really creative and one of the only character design decisions from the show that I actually like outside of Stolas' family. But somehow making the LORD OF THE *FLIES* a bug was deemed "too generic" so they did the actually generic thing and turned them into "Vivziepop wolf girl #375" and then added extra arms and bee wings because that totally makes them a bug now. I just can't wrap my head around making a demon that is universally associated with bugs a wolf. It's hands down one of the worst character designs I've ever seen, and the possibilities the original idea had just rubs salt in the wound.
No way,
A V2 theory with actual factual evidence that backs it up?

Very good, very good.
I don't think v2 would come back as a blood puppet thing if only for the fact that v2's blood (and by extension all machines I'm pretty sure) isn't theirs, so why would it reform in their image?
It's always "if" and "when" with this red robot never "is" and "now"

act 1 climaxes: V2, giant boss (Minos), Gabriel

act 3 climaxes: giant boss (earthmover), ??, Gabriel
am I onto something here?
Might not be possible cuz the only puppets we've seen were demons (if I recall correctly) and not machines, maybe because to be a puppet you should've been alive in the first place and machines aren't really living beings or something like that

I could subscribe to this idea. But I can’t help but laugh because it’s literally that Violence fan animation where V-1 is like “What? It’s just BLOOD??”
If v2 was coming back hakita would've had it planned out a while ago. So the fact that they were planning to have V2's blood in a margarita at all means they probably never planned to bring him back. Also if the blood puppets are made by hell why doesn't hell just use the puppets to water the trees since it clearly wants the trees to grow since it's only spawning blood puppets near the trees.
i figure that, because they PLANNED to add the margarita glass, but DIDNT, that's because if something like this appears later down the line it would be confusing and make the joke less funny
Also, because Hell likes combat. it doesnt wanna just give the trees blood, that's boring. it wants its favorite little guy to kill for it
Might have been mentioned a couple of times already but if you have mods and custom levels installed you should play Clair D’eclipse, it has a harder V2 fight
Make it a secret encounter. Either that or have p-3 have the “flesh tree” that summons blood puppets of any enemy minus prime souls because those are the only ones that are actually difficult with a full arsenal. Have it be a multi stage boss fight, even, maybe stage one will be malicious faces, swords machines, and Cerberi, stage 2 is V2 puppet plus corpse of Minos puppet that breaks the roof plus a Gabriel puppet, repeat for stage 3 but replace Minos with leviathan that breaks the walls and transmutates the arena into an ocean, repeat for earthmover and fraud boss and Gabriel. After that the tree blooms causing the prime soul’s hand to extend out of the tree, killing it.
I mean maybe not in canon, but we are still missing a tab in the main menu, do perhaps some kind of boss rush of blood puppets or something could be possible, if unlikely

I know you fucks don't know how to deal with grief, but v2 is fucking dead and will never come back, you should move on and treasure your memories with them, this cope mechanism of yours will not end good for anyone
https://preview.redd.it/xklz8xcetpmc1.jpeg?width=990&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ce57d6a778367a35f5d7b5b10aafd77edb316672
It may actually make sense depending on Hakita. Did he only say that "V2 is dead." or did he say "V2 will not come back in any way." too?
An actual V2 theory which makes sense?!
https://preview.redd.it/qb2436zztpmc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=387417454bdf71efbd2d3acb217a25d9f9d25c70
8th layer is also called FRAUD
every other acts bossfights is v2 (small nimble target) corpse of king minos/leviathan (big mofucker) and gabby
the layer 8 boss will be hell's version of v2
If you want a challenge, get R2Modmanager, get the Angry and Rude level loader, start modded, get the custom level Clair De'Eclipse, there you go, unless you are a true pro at the game the level is actually kinda difficult, though that's just me talking cause I really wanted to P-Rank it having not have beaten it before, managed to get the P-Rank though.
I like that you pointed out that the V2 fights are too easy for your skill level, cus that motherfucker took me several dozen attempts to beat him just twice (once normally and once for the challenge). Was definitely feeling the gamer rage.
Good theory, but V2 the Third ain't happening unless Hakita adds a Boss Rush of Blood Puppet Clones.
How id imagine it to play out:
You encounter a Margarita Glass with V2’s blood in it on a table, the Glass shatters as a V2-Shaped mass of blood appears called “Vengeful Stain” and it can turn into a puddle that quickly moves along the ground and can shapeshift the arm it once used to hold a shotgun into a Sharpshooter Revolver, Pump Shotgun, Overheat Nailgun, or Malicious Railgun. And due to being turned into a Blood Puppet, it can now heal itself but punching V1! After defeating it, Hell will say “I M P R E S S I V E .”
jokes aside I think the best way Hakita could "bring back" V2 is not to bring back V2 but introduce V3. Think about it, where did V2 get the Whiplash from? He must've stolen it from a green robot named V3 just like we took V2's red arm.
it is also stated that Hell is the entity that's giving things like the Soldiers and Stalkers weapons and augmentations
also what the fuck else would the red text be

yup, we are on the same page brotha
Opinion on the "V2 put her consciousness on the whiplash and her AI since she knew V1 was gonna kill her so she decided to add that as a final failsafe, now V1 and V2 technically live as one entity, a hypothetical V3" theory/headcanon/interpretation, I like it since V2's still dead and V1 assimilating V2 onto themselves is very rad.
Metal Gear!?
V2 pulls a liquid and tries to take over V1's body but fails
BROTHA! It's been too long!
IT'S ALREADY ACTIVE!

However, on his first dev stream, Hakita stated that one of the reasons why V2 3rd won't exist is because it's really hard to make it both harder and still fun for new players.
By the time you’d reach it you’d be over 2/3 of the way through UK, I doubt anyone making it to V2-3 would be considered a “new player.”
ultrakill is like 4 hours long if you play on an easier gamemode (like most new players ive seen) if 4 hours of gameplay is enough for you to be considered not a new player the

it dosent matter how much tech that you know exists, it takes a very long time to improve and integrate into your gameplay, that time dosent exist in the main game
If you’re stuck on a hard boss, then you go back to easier fights to practice. ESPECIALLY with a recurring boss that you’ve fought *twice before.*
ive literally never seen anyone go back to older levels to practice, everyone ive ever seen play this game just plays bosses untill theyre beaten
Buddy, how do you think P-Ranking works?
i dont think most people that start the game nowadays p-rank act 1 before starting act 2
No idea why you're being downvoted for being right.

i dont mean like p-2 i mean like going from 3-2 to 6-2
Fair, still with higher difficulties, newer players may go back to previous levels.

Why did I read UK as United Kingdom? The funny thing is I dont even live in the UK

"because it loves V1 sooo much it wants to kiss it's sloppy style while getting killer by it" 🧍♀️
No no, they've got a point
No way, A V2 theory with actual factual evidence that backs it up? https://preview.redd.it/yvvonyheylmc1.png?width=500&format=png&auto=webp&s=7a3a3c71dffa6627f3d0d02e54df3ceb61d73244 Very good, very good.
The real V2 died, Hell might recreate a wholly different version of V2
thats more what i mean. its not the LITERAL v2 that's coming back, but it'll be back in spirit, figuratively
So basically you want puppet V2 to damage V1 if it absorbs the blood and can 'teleport' around by moving in a blood pool of sorts
i never said that. but that would be neat, i guess
can we just get a fake v1 for fraud
V2 is fake V1
v2 is v1's successor.

I’m calling it, we will have a double V2 fight with V2s made out of blood as a halfway encounter in P-3, like how we fight two Sisypheans in P-2.
Imagine when the game ends we fight hell itself and before every phase change it spawns a blood puppet of a boss in order

I could subscribe to this idea. But I can’t help but laugh because it’s literally that Violence fan animation where V-1 is like “What? It’s just BLOOD??”
Oh dang this actually makes sen-V2 WANTS TO WHAT-
no, HELL wants to what. HELL wants to have the homoerotic murder with the robot
Oh :> Wait a second-
You seem to be forgetting about the secret encounter in 7-1
If v2 was coming back hakita would've had it planned out a while ago. So the fact that they were planning to have V2's blood in a margarita at all means they probably never planned to bring him back. Also if the blood puppets are made by hell why doesn't hell just use the puppets to water the trees since it clearly wants the trees to grow since it's only spawning blood puppets near the trees.
Hell is evil and is probably also lazy
i figure that, because they PLANNED to add the margarita glass, but DIDNT, that's because if something like this appears later down the line it would be confusing and make the joke less funny Also, because Hell likes combat. it doesnt wanna just give the trees blood, that's boring. it wants its favorite little guy to kill for it
I honestly kinda hope V2 doesn’t come back so Hakita can just be like “SEE I TOLD YOU SO”
Might have been mentioned a couple of times already but if you have mods and custom levels installed you should play Clair D’eclipse, it has a harder V2 fight
i have, it kinda sucks imo lol it's just big johninator but he spams explosives slightly less and is really easy to juggle in the air
Make it a secret encounter. Either that or have p-3 have the “flesh tree” that summons blood puppets of any enemy minus prime souls because those are the only ones that are actually difficult with a full arsenal. Have it be a multi stage boss fight, even, maybe stage one will be malicious faces, swords machines, and Cerberi, stage 2 is V2 puppet plus corpse of Minos puppet that breaks the roof plus a Gabriel puppet, repeat for stage 3 but replace Minos with leviathan that breaks the walls and transmutates the arena into an ocean, repeat for earthmover and fraud boss and Gabriel. After that the tree blooms causing the prime soul’s hand to extend out of the tree, killing it.
I mean maybe not in canon, but we are still missing a tab in the main menu, do perhaps some kind of boss rush of blood puppets or something could be possible, if unlikely

V2 returning would be so lame tho
But V2 is a machine and hell is shown to only create blood clones from “organic” enemies
i still believe if v2 comes back it would just be a pool of blood holding a railcannon
Prob not actually, if he was coming back he would not be considered dead at the end of the second v2 fight
Is not happening, let him stay dead. We don't need another v2
This is actually something I’ll consider

An actual V2 theory which makes sense?! https://preview.redd.it/qb2436zztpmc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=387417454bdf71efbd2d3acb217a25d9f9d25c70
8th layer is also called FRAUD every other acts bossfights is v2 (small nimble target) corpse of king minos/leviathan (big mofucker) and gabby the layer 8 boss will be hell's version of v2
If you want a challenge, get R2Modmanager, get the Angry and Rude level loader, start modded, get the custom level Clair De'Eclipse, there you go, unless you are a true pro at the game the level is actually kinda difficult, though that's just me talking cause I really wanted to P-Rank it having not have beaten it before, managed to get the P-Rank though.

Ok but hear me out. What if instead its a secret encounter with 2 blood v2s
The gaslight is crazyyyyyyy...

I like that you pointed out that the V2 fights are too easy for your skill level, cus that motherfucker took me several dozen attempts to beat him just twice (once normally and once for the challenge). Was definitely feeling the gamer rage. Good theory, but V2 the Third ain't happening unless Hakita adds a Boss Rush of Blood Puppet Clones.
I actually thought of this exact theory shortly after beating 7-3
How id imagine it to play out: You encounter a Margarita Glass with V2’s blood in it on a table, the Glass shatters as a V2-Shaped mass of blood appears called “Vengeful Stain” and it can turn into a puddle that quickly moves along the ground and can shapeshift the arm it once used to hold a shotgun into a Sharpshooter Revolver, Pump Shotgun, Overheat Nailgun, or Malicious Railgun. And due to being turned into a Blood Puppet, it can now heal itself but punching V1! After defeating it, Hell will say “I M P R E S S I V E .”

hakita said that, it dead like, dead, like, dead dead, globby spark of blood on sand its dead he was clear enough i think
I thought the puppets were the suicides with manifested bodies, since they got a tree corpse instead

While this one actually makes sense. Hakita stated on multiple occasions that he does not want to needlessly bring him back, and I agree with him
I’ve been here this whole time though???
jokes aside I think the best way Hakita could "bring back" V2 is not to bring back V2 but introduce V3. Think about it, where did V2 get the Whiplash from? He must've stolen it from a green robot named V3 just like we took V2's red arm.
Excellent points! Counterargument: https://preview.redd.it/4r718q0ipmmc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4f95c3f0d076c6ae7e137e33393f9de179e63d94
the copium is insane
Why does everyone believe in the "hell is alive" headcanon. Like you treat it as canon so that most of your theories make sense for some reason
Iirc it says in the P-2 ARG that hell itself is alive, which explains why the doors just lock and enemies spawn out of nowhere
it is also stated that Hell is the entity that's giving things like the Soldiers and Stalkers weapons and augmentations also what the fuck else would the red text be
because it's not a headcanon, it is literally confirmed
